Alice the Messy Chef likes a breakfast that is easy to take on the go, so she decided to create her own, healthier toaster pasteries. Here’s what she came up with:

Ingredients

· 1¼ c flour (ours is a blend of 3 parts whole wheat to one part white)
· ¼ c sugar
· pinch of salt
· ¼ c butter softened
· 1/8 c vegetable/canola oil
· 1/8 c water
· 1 egg
· 1 1/2 tsp jelly - flavor of your choice
· 2/3 c blueberries

Directions

Preheat oven to 375º
1. Combine flour and sugar.
2. Cut in butter with a fork.
3. Add oil, water and egg. Stir until well mixed.
4. Press onto Silpat on a cookie sheet.5. Bake for 7 minutes.

While that’s baking…
5. Mix jelly and berries in food chopper/processor. Refrigerate.
6. Remove dough from oven. Leave oven on. Slice dough lengthwise into 2 parts, but leave it on the Silpat-topped cookie sheet.
7. Pour filling on ½ of the dough, avoiding the edges. Cover with the half of the dough.
8. Bake 2 more minutes.
9. Remove from oven (you can turn it off this time) and slide the Silpat onto a wire cooling rack.
10. Slice into pasteries and seal edges with a fork.
